West Lake Park Recreation Amenities

In 2020 the Lake Stevens City Council adopted the first Trails Master program. One of the priorities of the plan was a trail corridor in the alignment of West Lake Park (formerly 20th Street Ballfields) extending north to the city of Marysville.

In June 2021, the Parks and Recreation Planning Board hosted an open house for the West Lake Park property, the preliminary plan was brought forward with updated information on landscape design, playground footprint, and increased parking based on public input. The community survey results were presented from the public survey on preferred options including playground design, preferred materials, dog park amenities and location, and general park feel.

This project is important as it satisfies several priorities from the community. Trails and athletic fields are important to the community and always score very high in surveys and public outreach.

The Bayview Trail connector project will add 4.7 miles of paved multi-use path aligning with Marysville's 64th St NE existing Bayview Trailhead. Phase 0 of this project was completed, and a ribbon-cutting ceremony was held in January 2025. The dog park opened on June 21, 2025.
